CWE-833BaseIncomplete
Deadlock
The product contains multiple threads or executable segments that are waiting for each other to release a necessary lock, resulting in deadlock.

CAPEC-25MetaStable
Forced Deadlock
The adversary triggers and exploits a deadlock condition in the target software to cause a denial of service. A deadlock can occur when two or more competing actions are waiting for each other to finish, and thus neither ever does. Deadlock conditions can be difficult to detect.
